Chapter 59: Spirited!
"Tsk!"
"There's a long way to go!"
Cao Xin sighed with emotion.
Savages are difficult to civilize, not only because they are rusty and slow to learn farm work, but also because of language.
Five months have passed, and I still can't explain all the basic words and phrases that I need to use in my daily life.
Not to mention literacy.
This is not an overnight effort.
However, even under such conditions, Cao Xin still led a group of savages to do great things during these five months-
View from above.
In today's Cao Xin territory, in the dense jungle, you can see several open-air places, and stone buildings rise from the ground.
One on the left, one on the right.
Including Cao Xin's stone house, and the house of the Wa savages, a total of four stone houses have now been completed.
Among them, the main inhabitants are the Wa people.
Cao Xin's house is still only inhabited by Cao Xin and the little savage Cao Quai, and the backyard is still used for storage.
The remaining newly built stone houses are still vacant, and they are intended for the accommodation of other wildlings who may move to the territory in the future.
But it's still too early to think about getting more savages to migrate.
When there are too many people, there is chaos.
We'll have to wait.
Wait until the Wa savages are completely integrated and learn the rules and even language of the territory, and then plan to bring the old with the new, which can save Cao Xin a lot of energy.
As a result, the two newly built houses are temporarily vacant and are only used as warehouses, and most of them are stacked with wood.
These are four mansions.
In addition, there are four chicken farms, ventilation and warmth are done, as for the summer to avoid the need, in the dense forest, even in the hot summer will not be too hot.
Stone roads connect the four houses to the four chicken farms, and at one end lead to a crude brick kiln.
For the time being, this brick kiln is only experimental.
In reality, Cao Xin contacted and accompanied Cao Ren to visit several brick kilns on the spot. By spending money, he purchased various technologies for building brick kilns and firing bricks and tiles in the hands of several skilled workers, so as to make technical reserves for the construction of the original fairy territory.
However, due to the shortage of manpower and technology, the brick-burning business in the territory is still in its infancy, and it is likely to be in the initial stage for a long time.
Along with it, there is also the pottery industry, which is also in the process of starting to explore.
Industry is tough.
In contrast, agriculture is much simpler.
Not long after Cao Xin met the Wa tribe last year and took in the little savages, he bought four calves and eight donkey calves in reality.
Half of them died during the rearing process.
By this year, only two calves and five donkeys had grown up.
If you have animal power, you must have land.
Cao Xin organized the men and women of the Wa nationality to go into battle before the winter of last year and at the beginning of spring this year, and in more than two months, he quickly reclaimed 40 acres of paddy fields on the south bank of the original river.
The speed of reclamation is not fast.
Reclamation is extremely difficult.
On the one hand, the excavation and erection of ditches and ridges are time-consuming and labor-intensive.
On the other hand, the aquatic weeds and weeds along the original river are easy to deal with, but the felling of trees and the entanglement of tree roots have caused great trouble to the reclamation.
That's why.
More than a dozen laborers.
More than two months of labor.
In the end, only 40 acres of paddy fields were reclaimed.
Based on the estimation of the yield of 300 catties per mu of ordinary paddy fields in the western capital, considering that the forty acres of paddy fields in the primitive fairy world were just reclaimed in the first year, and the Wa savages were not good at farming, the yield was discounted.
In this way, 40 acres of paddy fields produce about 6,000 catties of rice. According to the proportion of seventy percent of rice, it is 4,200 catties of rice.
An adult laborer eats one pound of rice a day, and these outputs are almost enough for ten people to eat for a year.
Other words.
With only these 40 acres of paddy fields, the Wa people are still unable to be self-sufficient in grain.
"The south bank is wooded, and it is not easy to cultivate."
"These forty acres are almost the limit."
"When the Wa people have been cultivating these 40 acres of paddy fields for a year or two, and they are familiar with farming and harvesting, they can cross the river to the north bank."
Cao Xin watched the savages work for a while, his thoughts were scattered, and he teleported to the fairy cliff and looked north on the north bank of the Yuan River.
There is a flat area, the grass grows and the warbler flies, and only a fire in autumn can reclaim thousands of acres of fertile land.
That's where real farming goes.
Of course, Cao Xin couldn't get by.
However, the Wa savages are not restricted and can cross the river to reclaim.
Three or five years later.
There must be no shortage of food, and it can even be 'exported'.
"The future is bright."
"The future is bright."
The nascent territory is full of hope.
……
"Pulling the carrot and pulling the radish~"
"Hi Roar Hi Pull Radish~"
"Hey, hey, hey, don't move~"
……
"I have a little donkey that I never ride,"
"One day I rode to the market on a whim."
"I'm proud of the little leather whip in my hand,"
"I don't know why, I fell into the mud."
……
In the house of the Wa people, there was a loud singing voice of Cao Quai.
After that, there was a noise of chirping, and the barking of two earth dogs.
The big children and the little ones are gathered in the same yard.
It's very lively.
The four female savages sat in the courtyard, each with their bellies puffed.
I have to say.
Savages can really make them!
There were only seven adult female savages in the Wa tribe, and after a winter, four were pregnant.
This also includes the female savage who happened to give birth to 'Waxing' when she arrived in the territory last year, and she is now two months pregnant.
Of the three adult female savages who worked outside, two were pregnant in their territories last year, one in winter and one in spring.
"It's really alive!"
Cao Xin glanced into the courtyard, and his heart was happy.
When the Wa tribe first came to the territory, counting the little savage Cao Quai, and counting the 'Waxing' who happened to be born at that time, there were a total of twenty-four people.
It has now increased to twenty-six.
And at least four new lives will be born this year.
Cao Xin was anxious to master the 'woman' subject in the thirteen departments of medical skills, in addition to conditioning the body of Cao Zhang's family, a large part of it was also because the female savages of the Wa tribe here in the primordial immortal realm could not do without him.
As a result, the lord of the hall, the 'king' of the Wa tribe, was reduced to a midwife.
Creation!
It's ridiculous!
But Cao Xinle is in it.
The birth and arrival of each new life brings a ray of life to the territory.
That's a good thing.
Although he didn't know the specific relationship between the 'Primordial Immortal Realm' and the feedback from [Creation], Cao Xin remembered that when the Wa Savage first appeared in his territory, the [Creation] exploded and gave a 'Derivation Immortal Talisman', which was the one who had ascended the ladder to the sky on the 'Medical Technique'.
If we continue to develop, the population will gradually increase, and everything will be good in the territory, and maybe we will be able to gain something.
Why not?
……
In the hospital.
Cao Quzhi sang a children's song, and was so angry with a group of children that he couldn't teach it. As soon as I looked up, I saw Cao Xin standing on the three-meter-high courtyard wall, and I was immediately happy-
"Brother!"
She was able to pronounce the 'ge' sound very accurately.
"Let's go."
"Go back and rest for a while."
Cao Xin couldn't help laughing when she looked at Cao Quai, worried that this group of little savages would her to death, so she grabbed Cao Quai's arm and teleported back to her house.
The other savages in the courtyard have long been familiar with Cao Xin's haunting, and it is not strange to see it.
After a while.
The seven little savages who were playing in the courtyard suddenly looked up and heard the familiar whistle -
"Beep~"
"Beep-beep-"
One by one, they suddenly ran out of the yard and ran to Cao Xin's house.
I went into the front yard and took a look.
Cao Xin had already set up the blackboard, Cao Quzhi had a copper whistle around his neck, and was blowing with his cheeks while moving a small bench, and a group of little savages hurriedly stepped forward to help.
Seven hands and eight feet.
There was a bout.
Soon, however, a proposed open-air classroom was erected.
"Ahh
"Pop no no, Boom Le ~"
……
"At the beginning of man, his nature is good."
"Sex is similar, Xi is far away."
……
"Mushroom-picking sister-in-law Liang~"
"Carrying a big basket~"
"Barefoot in the morning~"
"Walk through the forests and hills~"
……
The sound of teaching in the familiar department sounded again.
However, in the past, it was Cao Xin who taught, and only one student was sick.
And now, the teaching has been replaced by Cao Quai, and the seven little savages have become the second batch of students.
Cao Xin was beside him, pondering medical books from time to time, looking through herbal medicines from time to time, and always paying attention to the progress of the course, as well as the mistakes made in the teaching process of Cao Quai's disease and correcting them in time.
Cao Qu was sick and angry.
The little savage shook his head.
The atmosphere was high.
Youth is just right.
